Oooo you’ve said the “R” word I don’t like....

Ok there’s a few:

1. You can have your camera on or you don’t have too. There is no being forced to have your camera on. It’s totally your choice. We understand everyone’s comfort level is different.

2. There is no recording or screenshots To take place. We want people to feel comfortable.

3. You are able to read a poem of your own, a song of your own, a poem by another DU member (with their permission only) or a famous poem.

4. Please don’t interrupt people when they’re reading. It can be nerve wracking as it is.

5. Be wholly yourself, have fun, and don’t be a dick


Rule 5: is my life motto...

... Yes we have one other lurker in our midst also so you’ll be in company

You don’t have to read a poem of your own. You’re able to read a poem by another member (with permission) or even a famous poem that you just like

If you could shoot across your Skype details I can add you to the call if you would like

I don’t have a problem with reading my own poem, it’s the reading anything at all!

And frick, it’s been years since I’ve used Skype. I’m going to have to figure out my account info or create a new one and then get back to you.

Well, no pressure to read. It’s just worth remembering we are all in the same nervous boat

Lovely stuff on the Skype deets, just send them over when/if you would like too.

Then I have seriously miscalculated my time zone. Lol please just tell me that my phone will make a noise and let me know that someone on Skype is calling me or something like that!

Yup.

It’s 15:50 now in the U.K now. So it’s in 3 hours and 10 minutes time. 👍🏻

Good luck everyone. I work at a resort and today is Memorial Day checkout. So no open mic for me. But will be listening!
